The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) is seeking public comments on a proposed extension, with changes, of an existing information collection. This involves the Report of Multiple Sale or Other Disposition of Certain Rifles—ATF Form 3310.12, which must be completed by firearms dealers in certain U.S. states for specific types of rifle sales. The proposed changes note a reduction in the number of respondents and associated public burden since the last review. Comments are open for 30 days, and the public is encouraged to give feedback on the necessity, accuracy, and utility of the information collected.

The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has submitted an information collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This request pertains to trademark registration application forms and aims to evaluate the effectiveness of current procedures. The USPTO is welcoming public comments on the matter, extending the period for additional feedback by 30 days. This process will help ensure that filing trademarks is efficient and that unnecessary burdens on the public are minimized.
